This morning an ex-student opened fire in a packed geology class at Northern Illinois University. 5 were killed, including the shooter who turned the gun on himself, and 16 were wounded.

George Bush, our president and the man we chose to lead our country, encouraged Americans to pray, and went on to complain that the senate’s not passing a foreign security law that would allow American intelligence to listen in on calls from and to foreign countries left America weak and vulnerable. Having people enter our college campuses with 4 guns and go on shooting rampages, I think, is a more pressing issue.
